So I’ve been feeling pretty good lately. The problem I have been having is my neighbors. I live beside some sort of shelter for low budget housing. It’s the only shelter of it’s kind in my rich-ass, yuppie, white collar town. For the past week, cops have been over there every night. It pisses me off because I have been a very light sleeper since Iraq and don’t understand how people can have cops on called on them every damn day.
Well today, after the gym, I pull in my driveway, and there are 4 cop cars blocking it, seems like next door had some sort of domestic dispute. I get out my car and I’m very pissed, so I walk across the street to the office. I’m wearing my wife beater and I’ve got a protein shake in my hand,. I didn’t slam the door open but I open it pretty hard and scream “Who the hell owns that shelter, This is getting to be pretty fucking stupid.” Well, there are about 7 women sitting in a circle on the couches and chairs spread out in the office. Immediately, two girls start crying. The leader of the group looks at me and says “That’s a battered women’s shelter, and this is our support group.”

That sucks… Offer to bake some cookies for their next meeting and show up with an apron on and oven mits. It’ll show them the softer side of you.
Fucking apologize to those women if you haven’t already
and
Heavily consider moving. Their problems and your problems aren’t going to get fixed overnight, it’d probably be best to stay away from each other for awhile.

The hell with moving. I am not moving. I have a pretty awesome deal on rent in exchange for some handyman work. I honestly don’t feel bad for these women. I understand that they were beaten at one time due to their relationship, and that upsets me; HOWEVER, when you live in a shelter for battered women that has a rule that says “No Men” and you invite a man over anyway and he beats the shit out of you. In my book, that means you’re pretty stupid.

On second thought, maybe it’s time to buy that farm in Kentucky. I honestly hate this town and have no clue to why I live here.
I get you on the thing where these people get arrested every day and it makes no difference to them. I would be a lousy cop. I’d just shoot people and chalk it to the betterment of society as a whole.
